Contact your local
●
Authorised Repairer to
perform a thorough check
on all gas components of the
cooktop.

details, see your Service &
warranty book or contact
Customer Care.
IMPORTANT!
Make sure you keep the
●
flame ports clear. Soiling
from food spillage may clog
these and cause ignition
problems or uneven flame
patterns.
Remove stains left by food
●
or spillovers as soon as
possible. If left to burn on,
they may be difficult to
remove or even permanently
discolour these parts.
Before replacing the burner
●
parts, make sure that they
are completely dry. Wet
burner parts may result in an
irregular flame.
Before lighting a burner you
●
have reassembled, check
Flame
that all of its parts have
ports
been positioned correctly.
Incorrect assembly can cause
dangerous irregular flames
and ignition problems.
A clean ignitor ensures
trouble-free sparking. Check
the ignitor regularly to make
sure it is clean.

All checking and
●
maintenance must be
performed by a suitably
qualified person.
If the gas is connected with
●
a flexible hose, checking
should include inspecting the
entire length of the flexible
hose assembly for any sign
of wear or damage.
